Students Study Aircraft, Residential IAQ
and Building Safety
Research to
improve indoor air quality on planes and in homes and to protect
occupants in government buildings has been funded by the American
Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE).
Twelve
students have been approved to receive a total of $100,000 through
ASHRAE’s grants-in-aid program, which is designed to encourage
students to continue their education in preparation for service in
the HVAC&R industry.
The recipients
were chosen by the Society’s Research Administration Committee at
the 2005 Winter Meeting held Feb. 5-9. The grants are awarded to
full-time graduate students of ASHRAE-related technologies.
Fifty-five applications were received.
Results from
the projects may be incorporated in the ASHRAE Handbook, which is
the most widely used reference book in the HVAC&R industry.
